Re: Various squats in the area

pic of Mac's bus reminds me very much of another squat in Hampton, up by the river -- i think it was just Mac's bus there (no squatted properties) -- i remember driving along, almost there, and seeing there was police raid taking place -- i did an emergency stop, squealing to a halt, having to pull ...

Re: Various squats in the area

I remember a posh house in Teddy-town or Hemp-town, I can't remember which. this was almost certainly Broadmead in Hampton -- turrets and crenellated parapets, parquet floors, stained glass windows and 5 bathrooms -- there was a separate Gatehouse near one of the entrances where Jack and 4 others l...

Re: Various squats in the area

after the Norbiton squat ( 16 Galsworthy Road , opposite Kingston Hospital) most people moved to the squat in Roehampton Vale on either side of the A3 (wasn't this the site of Listerine House?) -- and what a horrendous move that was, so many vehicles breaking down and running out of petrol and getti...

I hope you wrote 'GEOgraphical' with your tongue firmly in your cheek. ah, that was just a bit of bait for Jamie to rise to should he ever browse the forum... we quote stuff back at each other years later to guage the decline in our memories :) it's an oblique reference to Sir Isaac Newton -- he de...

Re: The wasteground

...No.13. I must confess, I don't remember the people who lived there. Surely life must have been *not very nice* for them... Did they already live there when the squatters moved in? i expect life was better for them in Grosvenor Road than where they were before :) i got on ok with the mother, and ...
